...read an opinion on the Norbreck Castle Hotel at Blackpool I realised that we weren’t the only people to be very disappointed with the place so I thought I’d let you know our experience of the place. First of all I will tell you a bit about the place. It is situated on the seafront at the far northern end of the promenade at Blackpool, so it is well out of town, which is great if you like to be away from the noise and commercialisation that is Blackpool. ...
...you might expect from the Norbreck Castle, now for the reality! Dave and I won a night’s stay here a couple of years ago as part of our prize from the Pleasure Beach to be amongst the first to ride Valhalla on it’s opening day. We had already booked a couple of nights at our favourite hotel The Imperial and this prize just happened to be the preceding night – how co-incidental can you get? We thought that we were extending our luxury break by an ... Read review

Advantages: Out of the town
Disadvantages: Too many people!

...nights, after finding an advert which gave a special price of £35 per person dinner bed and breakfast per night. The two children were included free of charge, including their meals.

This did not deter us as we had plenty we were wanting to do in Blackpool itself. We arrived well before booking in time, and if we had needed to ... Read review

Advantages: it is a roof over your head
Disadvantages: The whole Hotel

We went to blackpool to meet the father in law and brother in law for the weekend with the kids one 7 months and 1 3 years old. My wife had booked the hotel because it looked really decent on checking in. Well let me guide you throught the experience: Checking in at reception: This was actually ok, the staff were very friendly and the main reception looked really clean and organised. We checked in and booked the dinner sitting for £12.50 per head ...
...up to the room was one of those posh types that you get in five star hotels so was quite curious as to the room but the we got to the 5th floor. it was like one of those science fiction horror movies when you step out of an elevator into one of those caves filled with flesh eating alliens. It was dark and dingy with the paint coming off the wall. All I noticed as we went along the corridor was when people opened their doors to come out of their room ... Read review
